tommys carat ep95 (now lowered on coilovers)


Recommended Posts

Finally got my finger out and made a bit of shape to my engine. Fitted new toyota seals to my transfer box and gear box and got it all bolted together again. Also fitted the new timming belt and plugs and bolted on my sump. Just ruffly set my turbo set up on so should hopefully be near ready for setting engine in cant wait :thumbsup: .

Get the battery in it and turn it over lol.

I was going to suggest you fit the inner CV cups and fill the transfer box with oil before putting it all in as its a pain to do once it is in, but I was to slow Tom. Looking good so far mate.

Ha ha did my home work lol a past quote from the man himself wee john

Only other advice I could give is to build up the engine, gearbox and transfer box, but leave off the inlet mani before fitting it into the engine bay. Its a lot easier to tighten everything up around the back, and filling the transfer box is a pain with the inlet mani on.

So box and transfer box are filled john :D .
